does a dsg remap definitely increase torque?

Not trying to cause a big dyno debate, but can I ask why the intake temps are so much higher that room temps on that graph Keith?

Its IAT's measured from the OBD port as in actual engine IAT's as measured by the IAT sensor on the engine and not ambient air temps as measured by an ambient temp probe just hanging out in the shop.

Just look at engine power as listed on the graph instead of corrected power to remove IAT's from the equation if you prefer, making it 357BHP instead of 362BHP.

Sorry, as someone pointed out on FB, it also has an APR Intercooler and OEM DV reroute in addition to the mod list I posted above.  I edited the post to add it in.

DV Reroute?

I assume this means that you have moved the location of the valve or routing of the (VW version of) vac pipes?

GTI5:
Does modifying the DSG as discussed above reduce the life of the gearbox components significantly?

Also what about impact to engine mounts/transmission mounts and cv joint bearings etc

Thanks
